How to reset 2FA on Zerodha

Tue, 12 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Zerodha requires two-factor authentication (2FA) for all Kite logins. The two options are:

TOTP (Time-based One-Time Password): generated by an authenticator app on your phone (Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or any RFC 6238-compliant app).
SMS OTP: a 6-digit code sent to the mobile number registered with Zerodha.

A 2FA reset is needed when you lose access to your authenticator app (phone replaced, app deleted, app data lost) or when the TOTP codes generated by the app no longer match the expected codes (time-sync issue).
